This is not the typical genre for me but I do love reading about early American history so I picked this book up. I am glad I did. Its not your typical romance novel and has tons of interesting historical stuff. I found the homeopathy info interesting as well. There were some pretty graphic gorey stuff that was hard to read, some of which included children. That might be disturbing to some.
I look forward to this author's next novel.

Unbelievably fantastic novel of life in pre Revolutionary War America. Gritty, savage and brutal but also beautiful and loving. You won't regret reading this.

This is a very genuine, easy-reading book about life in Colonial American prior to the Revolutionary War. The characters are very historically accurate and endearing. The pages take you through the struggles of a young Scottish woman who emigrates to the Colony for a better life. Her consequences for that choice are varied and complex. Some are foreseen and some where not envisioned in her plan for a new life. If you would like a lovely story to read, I would recommend this book.
